Gainer the Gopher got another change to his look after the redesign of the beloved mascot went viral last week.
Before the Roughriders game on Saturday night, a video showed Gainer throwing away his green contact lenses and showing off his brown eyes.

The slimmed down version of Gainer with piercing green eyes was met with some controversy online after last week’s home opener, and a group even started a petition with nearly 5,000 signatures to bring back the original design.
